What actually happens during a boudoir session?
So, you’ve been flirting with the idea of doing a boudoir shoot for a while now. You’ve stalked the Instagram pages, you’ve imagined yourself dripping in lace, maybe even saved a Pinterest board or two... but there’s still that little voice in your head going:
“What actually happens during a boudoir session?”
Girl, we got you.
Whether you’re doing it for yourself, a partner, or just because you need a reminder that you’re an absolute force of nature, here’s everything you need to know about what goes down before, during, and after your first boudoir shoot—ONYX Fox style.
Step 1: Booking & Pre-Session Hype
Once you book your session (go you!), you’ll get all the juicy details: what to bring, how to prep (spoiler: drink water, wear loose clothes, and get that beauty sleep), and how we’ll make the shoot 100% you.
Want full glam? We’ve got pro hair + makeup available as an add-on. Prefer your natural look? That’s cool, too. The vibe is your vibe—we’re just here to make it feel effortless and 🔥.
Oh, and you'll get access to our client closet—aka our little wardrobe heaven filled with bodysuits, lace, and pieces you’ll want to live in forever.
Step 2: Studio Arrival + Getting Comfy
You’ll arrive at our private, cozy, no-judgment studio in Littleton, CO—just you and us. No gawking eyes, no weird energy. Just a chill, safe space to unwind and feel like a damn queen.
We’ll chat, vibe, and go over your outfits. Nervous? Totally normal. That’s why we ease into everything with music, laughs, and real human connection. You’re not “posing for a camera.” You’re just being you—with some extra spice.
Step 3: The Shoot
This is where the magic happens.
We’ll guide you through every pose, facial expression, and finger placement (seriously, we don’t expect you to know what to do). No modeling experience needed—we gotchu.
And don’t worry about awkward angles or “bad sides.” We know lighting, we know posing, and we know how to bring out your best. You’ll walk away feeling like Beyoncé on a good hair day.
Bonus: We’ll laugh, probably curse a little, and maybe even cry (happy tears, duh). Boudoir is personal—and yeah, it can be emotional AF.
Step 4: Image Reveal + The Damn Proof
Within a couple weeks, you’ll get a link to your fully edited gallery—retouched but still you. Think: glowy, powerful, real—not filtered beyond recognition.
From there, you can download your images and choose from luxe add-ons like:
- Custom albums
- Wall art (yes, your booty deserves canvas status)
- Prints that’ll make you double take
FAQs We Get All. The. Time.
Do I need to be a certain size/age/look?
Nope. Boudoir is for every body. Period.
Can I bring someone with me?
You can! But keep in mind, sometimes friends/partners can unintentionally shift the energy. We’ll talk it through during booking.
I’m awkward in photos, will that show?
Nope. Awkward is our love language. We guide you start to finish. You’ll feel like a total badass, even if you start off shy.
Final Thoughts: You Deserve This
Doing a boudoir session isn’t just about sexy photos. It’s about claiming your power.
It’s about saying “this is me, and I am enough.”
At ONYX Fox Studios, we don’t just shoot photos. We create experiences that remind you of who you are underneath the noise, the stress, the “I’ll do it when I lose 10 pounds” BS.
You in? You’re ready.
